Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C
ValueA NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles cashed the board's mistake on Paul: C.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Eagles watched Patrick Paul slide 89 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 18th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at Round 2, Pick 18 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick55 Rnd2 Rome Odunze
Taking Rome Odunze in the 55th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick No. 56 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick137 Rnd5 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
They paid sticker price for Kamal Hadden in No. 138, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick178 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
They read the board right and Cody Schrader was the payoff at pick 178. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Dylan McMahon
No edge and no loss on Dylan McMahon in slot 243; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
